Network Configuration

Step 3: Add Data from the USS Network to the Configuration
Each slave on the USS network is represented trough a dedicated slot. The slot number correlates 1:1
to the USS slave number, i.e. slot #23 on PROFINET represents USS slave #23.
To add data from the USS network to the configuration, perform the following steps:
1.
Right-click on a slot corresponding to the USS slave for which
data shall be added.
2.
Select the ‘Insert Object...’-entry.
3.
Select an object which matches the data sizes (PKW and PZD)
of the slave which shall be added.
4.
Repeat steps 1... 3 for all USS slaves which shall be included in
the configuration.
Example:
Example with a single USS slave with the following properties:
- Slave address #1
- 4 words of Parameter Data (PKW)
- 16 words of Process Data (PZD)
Note:
The ranges shown in the ‘I Address’- and ‘Q address’-
columns includes space for the Slave Status Register in both
directions.
Step 4: Downloading the Configuration
To download the finished configuration to the IO Controller, select
the ‘Download...’-entry in the ‘PLC’-menu.
